As of today I cannot get sound at all. PulseAudio Volume Control keeps

they cannot do playback at all and give various error reports.

The pulseaudio sound server isn't running. check it with:
$ ps aux |grep pul
I get:

how about changing the order of the soundcard with the webcam ? Just an
edit of /etc/modprobe.conf ought to set it straight. The webcam is mono,
right? But since it is loaded first, then I would think that it is the
default sound device, being pointed to by such things as OSS
as /dev/snd. It's a thought, trouble shooting with a shotgun. Ric
